Answer:

Down Below, hope it helps!

Explanation:

The temperance movement was a social movement against the consumption of alcoholic beverages. It was extremely important because many families were broken apart due to the consumption of alcohol, mainly the man in the family. Many wives complained about abusive husbands and many parents got a divorce. That was not all, there were many religious and health concerns when it came to alcohol. The temperance movement did ban alcohol, but it didn't work. Many people went behind the law and started to create illegal places in which people could get access to alcohol. This was extremely dangerous and put many people in harm's way, causing the ban of alcohol to be put down, and the consumption of alcohol was once again, legal.

What does Atticus think about Scout’s conformity to gender roles
svetlana [45]
He didn't care much about imposed gender roles. He was open minded and only wanted for Scout to be happy and to be a good person. He didn't mind if she behaved like boys did as long as she grew up to be a good person who helps others and is compassionate. This is opposed to the beliefs of her Aunt which believes that Scout should not behave as she is behaving and that she should wear dresses and learn manners like a lady and be more lady-like, as she describes it. Atticus doesn't care about things like this and cares about Scout's upbringing as a person more.
